The holiday season has come and gone. It has been a VERY busy and fun season. I hope you have also had a nice holiday time with your family and friends.
I finished this Stoney Creek Freebie in 2002 or so. I had started it in 1989, I believe. It has sat in a drawer since 2002, which is awful. This year I simply placed it in a hoop and had fun displaying it.
This pattern was sponsored by DMC, and the advertisement for it was on the back of a magazine. This was of course way back before the internet was in homes, so I had to send away for the freebie pattern.
Do you have any old completed pieces just sitting in a drawer and not displayed? I confess I have a few others that are also sitting in drawers. Maybe this year I will do something about that. On the other hand, I won't stew over it if they remain in drawers.
I feel happy with things I have been able to do in my life, but I am not a huge goal setter, per se. Therefore I don't have any stitchy or other goals to share as the new year starts. Some would say that makes me a slacker, and I am okay with that.
I do strive to do more walking and exercise this year. It isn't quite a goal, but it is something I need to do.
Happy Stitching today! Thanks for stopping by, and please tell me if you have things in your drawers that need to be finished.
That is such a cute finish!!!! I have a bin of shame...it is just sad!
ReplyDeleteVickie- I can so relate! Perhaps instead of a bin of shame you should think of it as a bin of treasures. :)
DeleteI have things to be finished - basically that needs to be framed. My Finishes are not that small and I want my bigger pieces to be framed.
ReplyDeleteI really don't have any stitching goals for this year (2018). I am taking my time in Stitching on my Projects and I will stitch what I want when I want to.
Happy Stitching :)

I so agree with you, stitch what you want. That is what I do too. Thanks for your comment.
